[Q] Xperia T touchscreen interferes with active calls - Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V

Hi,
I've been using the Sony Xperia T now for a while and something bothers me.
When I am in a call, my phone tends to put the caller on hold, switch to speakerphone, or just end the conversation alltogether. My idea is that the touchscreen doesn't lock when I am in a conversation and I press either of these buttons with my ear/head. Is anyone familiar with this issue and is it something I can fix myself? I've looked through the settings on my phone but couldn't find anything to help me here.
This issue doesn't happen every call, but I would estimate it does half the calls. Especially when I'm answering calls.
Thanks.

Never had any problems.

I just checked it. It kicks in at 2/2,5 cm's. So that's good then?

Ringtone disappears when scroll wheel is moved?????

Hi All
I recently lost my ringtone and found a solution on here, so all is fine.....EXCEPT when the phone rings, the ringtone disappears when the scroll wheel (if that's what it's called) is moved.
Has anyone else come across this problem and if so found a fix???
The phone carries on ringing silently if I move the wheel, it's just the sound that disappears and that's obviously not very good if it's in my pocket!!
I've tried pressing all the other buttons when it's ringing to see if they make the sound disappear but they don't, it's only the wheel
Any one got any ideas????
Thanks
That's not a bug.
That's a feature...
My TyTN1 did that.
My P3600 did that.
My TyTN2 Does that.
It's the only way of making the phone go QUIET without canceling the call.
Quite usefull actually....
Honestly!!??
It's a feature??
How do I turn it off????
I like that feature very much, too. When someone calls and I don't want to talk to them I just hit the scroll wheel to silence the call but let it continue ringing for them. That way they don't know I'm ignoring them. I can plausibly be out of range of my phone or some other excuse. If you press the end key or hit "ignore" on the phone screen it sends the call immediately to voicemail and the person on the other line can tell they've been actively ignored...
I don't know if it's possible to turn it off.
ive always found it usefull. but sometimes it can be annoying as OP said when its in your pocket

The beginning of every sad story I've heard about screen cracks and phone damage, has always begun with , Well the phone was in my pocket and..............
When I pull my phone from it's padded holster I always look at the caller id first and do not wish to disturb other people while I decide. I appreciate the feature
I'm guessing it's a feature that can't be turned off then

Disabling vibration during a phone conversation...

(Having your phone in vibration mode) Have you guys ever experienced the 5 sec mail notification vibrating in the middle of calls annoying both you and the caller??
The Japanese phones over here usually disable vibration notifications during phone conversations by default...I'm confused as to why the Diamond does not act the same way...
Has anyone else experienced the same? If so, is there a solution to this problem?
Was anyone able to figure this out? or I am the only have this issue

Nah.. i have this problem as well.. it gets pretty annoying when there's a constant buzzing while I'm trying to talk... lol...
A similar thing happens when an SMS is received while i'm on a call..
Unlike the other non-windows phones i've had where it might simply make a beep, my diamond actually plays the entire SMS ringtone from the speaker over the voice of the person who i'm talking to.... (I dont know if the other person actually hears it...)
hopefully someone has a solution to either of these problems....

How to Disable the "reply with message" at incoming call screen

hi, just as the title shown, can anyone help me to disable it on my Xperia Z, thanks in advance.
Why would you do that anyway?

Yea why..it's not in the way or anything..
Sent from my C6603 using xda app-developers app
Just guessing: did you try to delete all message texts in the settings? Maybe the button won't appear if there are no texts.
..... Such a useful feature. And it's not in the way.
Two ways of using it:
Reply with a quick msg.
Or
When you just want to make the call stop ringing the ring tone. Just simply swipe up and the it stops ringing, but the call is technically still going.

I hate that it will stop ringing the ring tone.
It happens to me many times that when I'm running or shaking or something, a call comes...
Then the phone's screen is on, and my pants accidentally open the "reply with msg." and it stops ringing...
So I miss lots of calls due to that ******* function.
Why won't I just mute the call volume when I don't want it to ring?

Maybe it's because I'm quite hot (physically, no other meaning...), so the phone thinks that it's me who is touching the screen...

Perhaps, if you sweat through your pockets the water(sweat) would press lol. But you had some suggestions up there, if none of them worked. I'd just make it an habit to have the screen facing outwards. Or switch to AOSP Dialer.

Microphone and screen-on issues

Hi all,
I've come across a couple of problems with the phone that I've put down to manufacturing, but I'm not really seeing anyone else complain about them. I'd just like to see if anyone else is experiencing these issues or if I should have my phone replaced under warranty.
Issue 1: Microphone.
During a call, people can hear me clearly, but if I switch to speakerphone (or use an app like Skype or Viber, which usesspeakerphone for video calls), they have trouble hearing me. I know there is an issue where the mic stops working for some people, but mine is still working...only I sound very faint to the other person. If I bring my face right up to the phone and speak, they can hear me somewhat clearly, but it defeats the purpose holding it to my face when I'm in a video call.
Issue 2: Screen touches during a call.
I've noticed that when in a regular call, the screen turns off when I bring the phone to my face, and turns back on as I pull the phone away, which is fine. The problem is though, that while the screen is off and pressed to my ear, shortly after the light of the screen turns back on and it seems I've been pressing things with my ear, e.g. pulled down the notification shade, opened an app on my home screen or opened my app drawer, etc. Is anyone else noticing the screen turning back on mid-call? Or does anyone know if the screen still responds to touches even though the backlighting is off? Or is this an iPhone 4-esque situation where I'm "holding it wrong"?
Thanks guys
I take it the lack of responses means that no one else is experiencing the issue and that I should swap it under Warranty :/

I don't have this issue on my phone. Maybe try calibrating the proximity sensor in the HW test menu(*#*#64663#*#* in the dialer).
If that doesn't work maybe turn on the option of "power button ends call" under accessibility settings as a temporary fix while you search for a fix.

Thnx bro i have calibrated as u have told me to do. Now i will test it during calls. I hope this will work.
I am also facing the same problem.
I am also facing the same problem.
If you find any solution please do let us know.
same. i'm on havoc
I think you should get your display replaced
I think it an issue with the display. I faced a similar problem where my display was registering touches during calls and most of the time my microphone got muted because of it. I took it to the service center and got my screen replaced & now the problem is gone.
